@turf/polygon-to-linestring

polygonToLineString

Converts a Polygon to (Multi)LineString or MultiPolygon to a FeatureCollection of (Multi)LineString.

Parameters

• polygon Feature<(Polygon | MultiPolygon)> Feature to convert
• properties [Object] translates GeoJSON properties to Feature

Examples

var poly = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [[[125, -30], [145, -30], [145, -20], [125, -20], [125, -30]]]
  }
}
var line = turf.polygonToLineString(poly);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [line];

Returns (FeatureCollection | Feature<(LineString | MultiLinestring)>) converted (Multi)Polygon to (Multi)LineString

Changelog

4.4.0

🚀 New Modules

• @turf/line-offset Adds a new lineOffset module as per this issue. Basically takes an input line and returns a new line offset by the distance. (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/729 - Author @rowanwins)
• @turf/polygonize Polygonizes (Multi)LineString(s) into Polygons. Implementation of GEOSPolygonize function (geos::operation::polygonize::Polygonizer). (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/767 - Author @NickCis)
• @turf/transform-rotate Rotates any geojson Feature or Geometry of a specified angle, around its centroid or a given pivot point; all rotations follow the right-hand rule. (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/747 - Author @stebogit)
• @turf/transform-translate Moves any geojson Feature or Geometry of a specified distance along a Rhumb Line on the provided direction angle. (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/747 - Author @stebogit)
• @turf/transform-scale Scale a GeoJSON from a given point by a factor of scaling (ex: factor=2 would make the GeoJSON 200% larger). If a FeatureCollection is provided, the origin point will be calculated based on each individual Feature. (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/747 - Author @stebogit)

🏅 New Features

• Support z-coordinate as input for @turf/turf-tin (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/772)
• Adds properties parameter to @turf/centroid and @turf/center (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/769)
• Include Yarn.lock for all modules & Lerna uses Yarn (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/704, https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/765, PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/766)
• Use Tap at root which enables code coverage reports (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/328 & PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/762)
• Support z-coordinate as input for @turf/pointplane (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/754)
• Add core tests - file management & package.json rules (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/749 & https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/756)

• Website http://turfjs.org is back up and running (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/777)
• @turf/rhumb-destination issue at 180th meridian (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/770 & PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/771)
• Getting too large numbers for Longitude (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/758 & PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/763)
• Throw error if FeatureCollection not array #751 (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/760)
• Change default param coordinates to 3 @turf/truncate (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/757)
• along returns a point that is not found by @turf/point-on-line (Issue https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/691)
• Fix location of intersect point for @turf/point-on-line. (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/750)
• Handle empty geometries as undefined @turf/buffer (PR https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/pull/746)
